Preferred term

homeless assistance services and networks  

Definition

  • By 2003, homeless people in most communities across the United States had access to a much broader array of programs and services than existed even as recently as a decade ago. The availability of federal resources has stimulated much of this expansion, and federal program requirements have also stimulated service coordination.
